The issue about single threaded performance mainly in browsers to me seems more isolated to remote hosts throttling their upload speed per singlethread based on destination location and various other potential reasons.

In many cases I would test a singlethreaded download to one international host in the US that max out my line then on another US host I might get 10% of my max speed on singlethread, both cases in standard browser download. The moment I multithread the slow download it max out my line.

The only explanation I can have for the 2 examples in direct comparison is that it is not a case of CISP throttling singlethreaded download speed but something to do with the actual host you are downloading from handling upload traffic differently. If CISP actually throttled singlethreaded downloads then any and all international hosts would show the same singlethreaded performance and thats just not the case.

If this is the case, please explain this behaviour.

RD links that are slow (2mb/s), I connect iphone as modem on vodacom 3G, then play the exact same link and plays buffer free (10mb/s).

PBCool thinks is something called acceleration.

Holy wow @PBCool
I see the routing to mega.nz was optimized.
Uploaded another hard drive's contents last night, it just flew up, all 40Gbytes of it.
Thank you
 
Name another ISP that has such an active presence on the forum and is so easy to get a hold of someone that has vast technical knowledge and it seems like a direct line to the CEO :)

As long as the @PBCool is on this forum, I'll be staying with CISP.

Indeed, so even if there are problems I chose to sign up because at least I can speak to someone. After my recent experience with Vox Telecom.. its a real breath of fresh air.

I Think Paul ( @PBCool ) is one of the founders of Cool Ideas ? Might be mistaken. So you are in fact speaking to the top gun on this forum.

Have you called them?

Yes, I have, I have spoken to one of their technical agents and he told me they will be doing investigations. I then received an email asking me to do the iperf tests, which I did, and emailed it back to them. I also received an email from the fibre provider saying that one of the senior engineers at Cool Ideas will contact me, and yet, no one has.
 
Well color me surprised. The big gun at cool ideas gives us personal service.

Yeah. @op that is why they are top ISP.
 
Has anyone tried to run their PS4 through a linux proxy as yet? We could host one for this, the linux netstack will scale it's transmission window size and deliver it locally.
